Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Bergen, Bergen, Hordaland, Western Norway

Your private driver will pick you up at either your hotel in Bergen centre or one of the cruise ship terminals, if you are visiting by the sea. After a half an hour drive through the city suburbs and almost pristine rural areas, you will reach the Buena quay. This is the departure point of a small passenger ferry going to the Lysøen island. The tickets for the ferry ride there and back and entrance tickets to the museum are not included in the price of the tour and can be purchased on the spot for 160 NOK (17.5 EUR / 20 USD) pp - only 30 NOK per child.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Lysoen Museum (Ole-Bull Haus), Valestrand Osteroy, Lysekloster Norway

The ferry departs for the island at 11:00am, noon, 1:00pm, 2:00pm, 5:00pm, and takes about 8 minutes one-way.
The island itself is very cosy and picturesque. On the Lysøen island you will see the villa where you will get to know about Ole Bull and his life (the villa is currently closed due to reconstruction. Once opened - you will participate on a group excusion with the museum guide). The villa is quite unique: made of wood and combines 8 different architectural styles. After the excursion in the villa you can sit outside and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea or take a stroll on one of many walking paths which spread out all over the island on your own. Return ferry leaves at 2:30pm, 3:30pm and 4:30pm.
